Hello! I’m Kori Ameenah Rutherford
ICF Certified Holistic Life and Mindset Coach.
Born and raised in Philadelphia, PA, I now call sunny Florida my home. I’m a wife, mother, plant collector, and urban homesteader who’s spent over 15 years cultivating talents in both the corporate world and the coaching space.
Since 2007, I’ve been passionately committed to coaching—starting with relationships and expanding into mindfulness, meditation, and holistic life coaching. My coaching is rooted in clarity, compassion, and intentional growth, blending practical tools with soul-centered guidance.
I hold the Associate Certified Coach (ACC) credential from the International Coaching Federation (ICF), a globally respected mark of professional excellence. This certification affirms my dedication to ethical practice, high coaching standards, and ongoing growth. It’s more than a title—it’s a promise of accountability, depth, and transformative impact.
Driven by a love for helping others thrive, I founded Sakinah Wellness, a space where coaching meets conscious living. Here, I guide individuals through personalized life coaching journeys that foster self-awareness, resilience, and holistic well-being. Whether you’re seeking clarity, motivation, or a deeper connection to your purpose, I’m here to help you cultivate balance and fulfillment—from the garden to your goals, and everywhere in between.
Let’s co-create your path to a life that feels whole, empowered, and aligned.
Sakinah /suh-KEY-nuh/ noun: inner peace, calm, tranquility, ease, rest, serenity.
What is Holistic Life Coaching?
Holistic life coaching is an empowering approach that honors the full spectrum of your life—mind, body, spirit, and environment. It’s about seeing you as a whole person, not just a set of goals or challenges. Instead of focusing solely on productivity or achievement, holistic coaching helps you realign with your values, embrace balance, and uncover the deeper patterns that shape your well-being.
Together, we work to:
Identify areas of imbalance and restore alignment
Strengthen emotional clarity and intuitive decision-making
Cultivate sustainable habits that reflect your values and goals
Connect the dots between your inner world and outer circumstances
Empower you to take conscious, confident action with resilience
Holistic coaching is less about fixing and more about flourishing. It’s a gentle yet strategic invitation to live with intention, compassion, and clarity—rooted in who you truly are.

“Coach Kori is wonderful. She helped me to identify areas of my life that I want to improve on and gave me the tools to begin working on the goals that I have set for myself. I like that she tailors her services to you as an individual, and not a cookie cutter all fits all kind of way. She's there to motivate and get me back on track when I lose focus, but in a beneficial way. I will definitely recommend her to others.” - K.
